Hi,
As from the pcre-8.45, the upstream stopped supporting this library. The recommended procedure is to switch onto the new pcre2 library that has full upstream support. [1]
As a result of this announcement, the older PCRE library in Fedora will be retired.
Without upstream support, we don't have enough capacity to keep up with the security and bugs-related issues, and thus we will support only the new PCRE2 library. [2]
The retirement procedure will happen in the upcoming weeks, so if you would like to take over the package let us know.
